I need help with my abs workwout. I really want to try something new with more lower ab work than I'm getting.

1st workout: crunches 5O times then left side crunches 50 times then 50 right side crunches then more 50 crunches/
2nd workout: 40 lying leg lifts, 50 crunches, 50 right@left crunchs, 40 lying leg lifts.

I do this about 3-4 times a week. But I not getting the results I want. What should I do?

What are you trying to accomplish?

You want stronger abs? or better looking abs?

If you want to look good, the most important exercise to do are 'push aways', as in push away that food, cause it is mostly about body fat %.

If you want stronger abs, experiment with stuff like:

I want to be able to go down to one of those mega gyms and and take a pilates class and after an hour of making the instructor look bad ...say something witty like "you call that a workout? I'll show an abs workout old school, biiiatch."

Lofty Goals

reverse crunches work great...

you can try this method...

pick 2 or 3 days out of the week. Do 80% of the max number of crunches you can do every hour for 10 hours...for one day. so say you can do 100 crunches...then do around 80 crunches every hour for 10 hours . so in one day you'd be doing a total of 800 crunches...you can probably try switching up between 2 ab excersises too...like doing leglifts...then the next set do crunches etc.

and yea cut down on the sugary/fatty foods

Janda sit ups

Hindu situp will make your abs TEH D#4DLY!!1!

Seriously though, whatever ab workout you do, be sure to complement it with the same amount of lower back exercises. You'll be amazed at how much stronger your abs seem and you'll prevent a lot of back problems and poor posture.
